Vascular Surgery

Vascular minimally invasive surgeries include:

  • Peripheral Angioplasty and Stenting - Blocked arteries (usually in the legs) are repaired using small catheters and balloons, which are inserted into the artery through the groin.
  • Aortic Stent Grafts - Aortic aneurysms are repaired with a stent graft placed through the arteries in the groin. A small groin incision is used instead of a large abdominal incision.

For more information, see the Vascular Medicine Program at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center web site.
